Only with us at the Attis Arena very recently, we are saddened to learn of Kevin Keegan's cancer diagnosis earlier this evening.

We would like to send our best wishes to Kevin as he undergoes his treatment, and it goes without saying we hope he makes a full recovery.

British armed forces helped support the US seizure of a Russian-flagged oil tanker travelling between Iceland and Scotland, the Ministry of Defence has revealed. ⚓️

RAF aircraft and a Royal Fleet Auxiliary vessel were involved in the operation, which the UK says was part of efforts to crack down on sanctions evasion linked to Russia and Iran. Moscow has suggested the seizure could breach international law, raising tensions between Russia and the West.

Police Patrols Stepped Up In Crosby Area

This evening (Wednesday, 7th January 2026), officers will be conducting high visibility patrols in multiple areas of Scunthorpe under Section 60 of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994.

Detective Superintendent Doug Blackwood from Humberside Police said: “In addition to daily patrols and visible presence from our Scunthorpe Neighbourhood Policing Teams, members of the public in the Crosby and Park Ward, and Town Ward areas of Scunthorpe can expect to see an increase in police presence from around 3pm until around 7am on Thursday, 8th January 2026.

“This has been authorised under Section 60 of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 and allows officers to stop and search people and vehicles in a specific area without suspicion for items such as weapons in specific locations and for a designated period of time.

“This is in response to a number of reports and concerns around serious violence between people known to each other in the area.

“Whilst I understand this may cause concern amongst local residents and businesses; we would like to reassure the local community that these are preventative and proactive measures, and enquiries remain ongoing to identify all those involved in the reports.

“We would continue to urge anyone with any concerns or information about violent crime in their area to speak to officers in the area, or by calling our non-emergency number 101.

“Always call 999 in an emergency or if a crime is ongoing.”

You can also report via the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

A new year can feel like the right time to start conversations you have been thinking about for a while.

Could this be the year you explore adoption? For some, that journey can include routes such as early permanence, which focuses on giving children stability from the very start of life.

This weekend, the first Second Saturday of 2026 offers a chance to speak to the adoption team, ask questions, and explore what adoption could look like for you.

Come along, take things at your own pace, and get the answers you are looking for.
